Well, I think we all knew or thought something like this was gonna happen. This is why I will not have Alexa or the other one in my home. To much technology. These things can listen to you and record you. I do not want my personal life recorded by a machine that is connected to the net. This is getting a bit much I think.

QuoteWe're learning an important lesson about cutting-edge voice technology: Amazon's Alexa is always listening. So are Google's Assistant and Apple's Siri.

Assistants are a good thing..."IF" they are not owned by the company that makes your phone or your ISP.

There are a number of other ones out there and they will help keep you organized and on track. BUT, you must find one that have no connections to the company that owns your phone, ISP, etc. Do your research on the company that designed it first!
